Make this Reindeer Days Flying Reindeer Christmas Card easily for the holidays. This patterned paper looks so fun with all the little reindeer but I wasn’t quite sure what to make with it at first. Deciding to showcase one reindeer up close as the focal point of the card seemed to work well with the paper! It is so much fun to play and see what you come up with.
This card has a Real Red card base. The reindeer paper is in the Reindeer Days Designer Series Paper. I am loving this paper for Christmas cards and projects. From another sheet, I cut out this one larger reindeer with my Paper Snips scissors. The background color of the designer paper is Pool Party, but using Pool Party cardstock was too much of a contrast so I added some light Pool Party color to the diecut Basic White circle. I used a small Blending Brush and lightly added some Pool Party ink to the circle. Then it was layered on a Real Red diecut circle. These are in the Stylish Shapes Dies. The circles are popped up with lots of Stampin’ Dimensionals which also help hold down the ribbon. The reindeer is just adhered flat on the circle with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To add a little embellishment, I added some Real Red & Gold 3/8″ Dotted Ribbon to the back of the circles. We had this ribbon last year but it is a carry-over and still available in the Online Store. Around the reindeer I added some White Loose Snowflakes (mine are retired but look the same). Just put the tiniest dot of glue you can manage or use a toothpick to pick up glue from a puddle on some scrap paper. I used my Take Your Pick Tool to pick up the tiny snowflakes and glue them onto the card.
The greeting is a sticker in the Reindeer Days Designer Series Paper & Stickers package. You can buy the designer paper separately, but if you would like the extra stickers get Item #166612. The stickers are fun and easy to use if you have one that works with your project.
Have fun with the Reindeer Days Designer Series Paper and get it while it is available!
